Chapter 1268 Mount Blackcloud

As Arielle said nothing, Queenie grew increasingly furious.

Anyone would be upset to get ignored, especially when Arielle was her love rival.

Gritting her teeth, she said, “Are you feeling smug? Even if Cor values your medical skills, there’s no way you would become the head of the family. Dream on!”

Arielle shot Queenie a glare like she was a fool before getting up to head to another seat.

“Hey…”

Before Queenie could fly into a fit of rage, Cornelius came out.

As Queenie wanted to join the selection to be the head of the family, she tamped her irritation down.

“Thank you for making time to join the selection for the new leader. Now, we shall begin the selection. There are three areas of assessment, and you’ll be graded in each area. Three days later, the candidate with the highest average score will be elected as the leader of the Mill family,” Cornelius announced as he stood in the middle of the hall, clad in his plain clothes.

After explaining the details of the selection, he revealed the first mission.

“Your first mission is to find herbs in the mountains. Before the sun sets, the person who finds the most herbs will receive the highest score.”

After a brief pause, he added, “There might be beasts in the mountains, so it is a dangerous mission. Those who are afraid can quit now.”

“The mountain? Which mountain?”

Many candidates weren’t local, so they didn’t know the place well.

“Could it be Mount Blackcloud in the suburbs of Jadeborough that people rarely go to?” a local asked.
